<!-- Administration needs special permissions. -->


The links on the topmost box of the left tab make it possible to
perform the tasks detailed below.

<h3>No permissions required</h3>

<dl>
  <dt>  <strong>View System Status</strong>
  <dd> This gives a summary of the operations performed so far in the
       database management and update.

  <dt> <strong>Download the DB</strong>
  <dd> Clicking on this link will offer you a <code>tared</code>,
       <code>gzip</code>ped file containing the current database.
       This file can later be uploaded to another AMOS installation in
       order to duplicate it.  
</dl>

  <h3>Administration password required</h3>

<dl>
    
  <dt>  <strong>Upload the DB</strong>
  <dd> Make a previously saved database (either local, or from another
       AMOS installation) to be installed as the current one in the
       system.  <strong>Caution:</strong> the former database will be
       removed and changed.  It may be necessary, therefore, to make a
       backup. 

  <dt>  <strong>Review Packages</strong>
  <dd> This link is to be used to routinely review the packages
       submitted for approval, and approve or reject them.

       inspected and updated, and more terms and generalizations can
       be added.

  <dt> <strong>Manage the DB</strong>
  <dd> This link allows the administrator to search packages and to
       edit them.

  <dt> <strong>Modify Dialogues</strong>
  <dd> The text and appearance of the administration interface can be
       changed here on-the-fly.

  <dt>  <strong>Reload Templates</strong>
  <dd> This makes the dialogues modified in the last link to be
       reloaded in the tool.

</dl>

  <dt>  Database Navigation, Reviewing Procedure, Editing the
       Dictionary, and Server Management
